The Dragon at the Edge of the World‪.‬

An irreverent look at the first contact between Vikings and indians. ... The special Viking song: Oh we'll sail away/ For a year and a day/ But it's not for gold or plunder,/ Yeah we'll sail around/ 'Til we sink and drown/ And our mighty ship goes under,/ Oh we'll make the gray whale tremble,/ Our weapons bright we pledge,/ We'll sail around 'til we sink and drown/ But we won't fall off the edge!/ Two Viking brothers are lost in the New World; one loses his ship in a dice game with the Mohawks. ("Look Laddie, they're called dice!")The ship becomes a super weapon on the Champlain/St. Lawrence River system. Meanwhile, Chinese pirates make their way through Canada, ("A great river. free of ice, stretching away to the SouthEast. It had to lead somewhere.")and the search for gunpowder ruins lives across the continent.
